[Elecraft] KX1 Power Output

2012-01-30 Thread Tom Crites
I hope you can read this, but do the values look reasonable, for a KX1
with the output power mod.  Peak to peak (Vpp) voltages and RMS (Vrms)
were taken with a high end O'scope and used to compute the Power
values (Ppp and Prms).

Seems the KX1 read the supply voltage about 0.4 volts low.

Thanks,
Tom Crites, KC8SES

Can anyone comment on a BD139-16 as a replacement for the 2SC5739?

Thnx,

Re: [Elecraft] KX1 ATU?

I'll mess around with it.  My K2 tunes it without any problems so I
thought the KX1 ATU would also.

Thanks,

 Are you tuning the buddipole per the instructions? If so, the KX1 should
 have no trouble with it. Indeed, you might not need  the tuner at all!

 My KX1 (with tuner) tunes great to a random wire or my G5RV but I can't get
 better than about 6.1 into my home made Buddie Pole (coax feed). I'm
 assuming I need a balun? Maybe like Elecraft mini 1:1 or 4:1 unit.
